Short Description
Die Chemie der fluorierten Lösungsmittel und Reagentien hat sich in kürzester Zeit von einem exotischen Randgebiet zu einem immer wichtigeren Teil der Chemie entwickelt.
Dieses Handbuch, herausgegeben von J. Gladysz von der Universität Erlangen, einem ausgewiesenen Experten auf dem Gebiet, fasst nun erstmals alle essentiellen Aspekte dieser Chemie zusammen.
Vor allem die Vielzahl von zuverlässigen Versuchsvorschriften macht dieses Buch zu einem idealen Ratgeber für Einsteiger, die diese elegante Technik im Labor anwenden möchten. Aber auch der Fachmann findet eine Fülle von wichtigen Informationen, kompakt in einem Buch vereint.
Edited by the leading experts John Gladysz, Dennis Curran, and István Horváth, this handbook is the first to summarize all the essential aspects of this emerging field of chemistry. Whether the reader is seeking an introduction to the concept of fluorous biphase catalysis, summaries of partition coefficients involving fluorous and organic solvents, or information on the latest fluorous mixture separation techniques, this authoritative compilation of contributions, written by the world's top authors, provides key information needed for successfully working with the diverse and fascinating families of fluorous molecules. The large number of reliable experimental procedures in particular makes this the ideal guide for newcomers wanting to use this elegant method in the laboratory. In addition, experts will also find a wealth of important information concisely contained in one ready reference. The result is an indispensable resource for everyone currently working or intending to work in this field.
